Denn während manch andere sich mit einem beliebigen Hopfen begnügen, haben wir nur eins im Sinn – beste Zutaten. Alles für diesen Moment: Liebe Zuschauer, herzlich begrüße ich Sie heute zum WM-Qualifikationsspiel gegen Wales. Nach dem wichtigen 2:1-Sieg am vergange- nen Samstag gegen Russland steht die deutsche Nationalmannschaft weiterhin an der Tabellenspitze und auf dieser Position möchte sie natürlich auch gerne in die Winterpause gehen. Gerade die starke Leistung in der ersten Halbzeit in Dortmund stimmt optimistisch, dass der dazu notwendige Erfolg gegen Wales in Mönchengladbach rea- lisiert werden kann. Gleichzeitig von großem Interesse ist an diesem Mittwoch das für das Tabellenbild in der WM-Qualifikation äußerst spannende Duell zwischen den Russen und den bisher noch ungeschlagenen Finnen in Moskau. Bei aller Freude über den Sieg im „Gipfeltreffen“ am Samstag über Russland wird unser Team mit Sicherheit heute die Waliser nicht unterschätzen. Zwar ist die Länderspiel-Bilanz gegen die Gäste von der Insel positiv, denn in 15 Begegnungen wurde bisher nur zweimal verloren, aber besonders das 0:0 im letzten Aufeinandertreffen in der EM-Qualifikation am 21. November 2007 in Frankfurt am Main hat gezeigt, dass sie immer für eine Überraschung gut sind.
